Tunze Nano Streams
Ya, I have had 2 6025s for around 6 months. I like the look of them and how they push the water, but I have had simmilar issues with 2 rusted shafts, and have had to replace the C clamps 2 times (at least). Not only did the clips on the clamps snap off but the actual C part cracked and did not propery hold the head after a while. I have decided that when cleaning these heads to leave the heads in the clamps as not to break the C clamps. As well I am now extra carfull when searating the magnets from each other as to only hold onto the actual puck part of the magnets and not the clamp or head.

C clamp replacement
No they did not replace the C clamp only the heads when the shaft broke off.

Im still running my original 6025, the one with the flat cord. Been doing so since march. The first time i tried to clean it i broke the 2 lower clip that attach it to the magnet. I really like the flow better than my Korolia 4, not comparing gph. The only real problem i have with it is that the impeller sometimes stalls when i restart the pump. I usually just jam in my stainless tweasers to give it a little push start with no ill affects.

From what ive seen of the two the Tunze 6025 shoots out more of a cylindrical stream whereas the korolia 4 is more of a cone shape (almost shoots out in a 180 degree angle from the impeller) and does not travel as far. In my case, a 20g i didn't want to have more than one powerhead so the tunze won because it could penetrate deeper and created less dead spots in my tank (i still have a few im fighting with). Maybe you could up the size to a 3 or 2, but i had corals too close to the powerhead that couldn't handle the flow.

nanos
Are these mainly with the 6025s or with other models such as the 6045s and 55s?
